No point, no problem?

The Warriors are two days away from Wednesday’s season opener, and they don’t have a backup point guard. So coach Keith Smart is choosing to ignore the problem, kinda.

“When I look at it, I’m not going to say, ‘backup point guard,’ because we don’t have a true one,” Smart said. “But I’m comfortable that we have someone who can initiate us and get us into our offense and not have a problem with getting the ball where it needs to go.

“I’m going to eliminate backup point guard from our vocabulary and just go with a guy who can initiate the offense for us.

The experiment with transitioning shooting guard Charlie Bell to the point failed, and rookie Jeremy Lin isn’t close to being ready to play important minutes. Monta Ellis has shifted to the point for most of the minutes that Stephen Curry sits, but Reggie Williams filled the role and had eight assists Friday against the Lakers.

“Reggie can play some point guard when he’s in game situations and you can’t put your hands on him,” Smart said. “That was a big plus and a big surprise, because I was a little suspect at first.

“I’m not going to put him over there for a long time, but, if I need him as a playmaker, he can do that.”

General manager Larry Riley said he has explored a variety of ways to find a backup point guard during the past two weeks, but he hasn’t found the right move. He said “if we get the right guy, we might still go that direction.”

In meantime, however, the Warriors had to file their opening-night roster with the league office. Instead of giving the 15th spot to a point guard, the Warriors kept former UConn power forward Jeff Adrien.

“We think he has earned an opportunity to stay here with us,” Riley said. “Having said that, we’ll continue to search throughout the year for ways to improve our team.”
